Answer:

A. Parallelism.

Explanation:

Parallelism is the use of successive, consecutive verbal constructions especially in poetry and literary works. They correspond in it's grammatical structure, sound and meter of the work.

Henry David Walden wrote the poem "Walden" talks of a reflection in living among nature and peaceful existence. It talks of the time when Thoreau went to live in isolation, building his own cabin and cultivating his own food and sustenance. His main objective was to show that a man's true nature is hidden among all the busy hustle of big city living. When he says

<em>He </em><em>will put</em><em> some things behind, </em><em>will</em><em> </em><em>pass</em><em> an invisible boundary . . . and he </em><em>will live </em><em>with the license of a higher order of beings.</em>

he uses the rhetorical device of parallelism with his use of the word "will".

Answer:

“SPEECH AT THE MARCH ON WASHINGTON”

C. Baker believes speaking out against injustice is effective.

Explanation:

In her 1963 “SPEECH AT THE MARCH ON WASHINGTON,” Josephine Baker said "They were mad because I told the truth."  But, speaking out against injustice is effective.  It yields the desired outcome if not in one's lifetime, in the lifetime of one's children and grandchildren.  Injustice should never be stomached by any human being.  According to Baker, you do not need gun to fight injustice, use pen instead.

Josephine Baker was an American-born French entertainer, who fled the US amidst unmitigated racial discrimination and segregation.  She went to Paris, France where she became an instant success, gaining an opportunity that was denied her in her native country.

In the first two chapters of Nehemiah, what do know about Nehemiah? During his time in the Persian court, Nehemiah was a cupbear
Olenka [21]

In the Persian world, the cupbearers and governors do for the kings was that the cupbearer duty was to make sure the king's food and drink were secure.

The cupbearer maintained a position of great trust in the court because the poison was frequently used to assassinate kings in times past. Nehemiah's vigor, prowess, selfless patriotism, and moral rectitude brought back a fresh, jubilant Judah. Jerusalem's renovation, which had been in ruins for 15 years, got underway. A good and devoted priest named Ezra joined Nehemiah in the task, and the two of them were successful in reestablishing a Jewish community in Jerusalem.
